Lu Ping'an took the letter, checked the paint on it, and then opened it.
He glanced through it quickly, his eyes widening.
Lu Ping'an looked a little suspicious of his eyes, and quickly reread it word for word carefully twice before putting down the letter expressionlessly.
The messenger hasn't left yet.
Perhaps because he still had a mission, he was still sitting quietly opposite, drinking hot tea.
Lu Pingan raised the secret letter in his hand and stared at the other party thoughtfully: "Do you know the contents of the letter?"
"The general is joking," the messenger quickly shook his head, "The young one is just an errand boy and doesn't know the contents."
"But before we set off, I told you that I must hand over the secret message to the general with my own hands."
"Very good." Lu Ping'an walked over, smiled and patted the messenger on the shoulder, "It will be burned after reading, right?"
"I will understand this rule."
The little messenger was stunned.
He didn't mean that.
It's just that it's too cold, and the boss didn't tell me when I should reply.
He had been driving for three days in the wind and snow, and wanted to rest first and have a meal at the same time.
However, a fierce light flashed in Lu Ping'an's eyes,
Uh-huh.
He suddenly pulled out the dagger from his waist.
Cold light passed by.
Before the messenger could react, the dagger had already been thrust into his chest like lightning, and was still spinning in a circle.
This dagger was used to cut the safety rope immediately after the battleship collided. It is naturally extremely sharp.
"you……"
The messenger didn't understand what happened, so he rolled his eyes and completely lost his life.
Lu Pingan looked at the corpse on the ground coldly, as if he saw something disgusting.
Pooh!
He spat heavily.
"What are you doing? Let me release water for the Japanese pirates and let them come ashore?"
"I am not afraid of heaven or earth. I can dare to do anything, but I dare not betray my country for glory."
Lu Pingan cursed a few times before walking to the door: "Come here!"
The young guard hurried in and was stunned when he saw the corpse on the ground, but quickly returned to his original state.
"Get rid of this bastard," Lu Ping'an raised his head and glanced in the direction of Star City with an expressionless face, "and send this secret letter to my father at the same time."
"yes!"
After leaving the temporary camp, the north wind was howling and light snow was flying.
However, Lu Ping'an felt unbearably hot all over his body.
hiss!
He took off his armor and tore open his shirt with all his strength, revealing his dark and strong chest. Only then did he feel better.
here we go again.
The guards looked at each other and made each other sad.
They were about to open their mouths to persuade, but were directly interrupted by Lu Pingan.
"Where is Deputy Lieutenant Zhang Yang now?"
"General, Lieutenant Zhang is patrolling the high point."
"I heard that they don't have much stone, kerosene and heavy crossbow bolts. The deputy lieutenant is busy deploying the remaining resources."
Lu Ping'an nodded, ordered his people to keep an eye on the Japanese pirates' movements, turned around and walked towards the group of ballistae vehicles at a higher point.

At sea, Doi Fleet.
Doi Yongto was a little restless, looking back from time to time to stare at the sea to the east.
These days, the offensive of the third line of defense has been interrupted. No matter how much his nephew Dohi Kazuto urged, the army could not move forward one step further.
And the spies have just sent news from the east.
The main force of the East China Sea Barrier returns all the way west and will reach the offshore of Huayang County in less than three days.
"General," several military advisors were anxious, and they all came together, "The East China Sea barrier is coming soon, we have to think of a way quickly."
Otherwise, once Lu Fuhai arrives, this Dinghai Pier will be the burial place for them.
well.
Dohi Yuuto looked down at the map, smiled bitterly and sighed.
What can be done?
Huayang County in front cannot be defeated, and Sishan Islands in the back cannot be returned. As for the south, the Jade Dragon Fleet is waiting. To the north, Mo Canghai is not that powerful, but to the north there is a headwind and there is ice and snow everywhere, so it is not a good place to go.
"General, our ships are more or less damaged. We don't need to think about our retreat at sea. Let's attack westward with all our strength!"
"Yes!" Others nodded, "Now we can only break through the front line of defense in one go, and then work hard to seize a county and hold it. This is the only way out."
…
boom!
In the midst of the commotion, Dohi Yongto punched the table in front of him heavily.
Ba.
A bright blood flower burst out.
He seemed unaware.
"Pass this general's order. Everyone should immediately organize their weapons and equipment and try their best to have enough food. We will attack at midnight tonight. The target..."
Doi Yuuto glanced at the two main enemies in front of him.
"The target is the Central Corps defense area on the south side of the defense line. Kill it at all costs!"
Everyone cheered up and said, "Yes!"
Half an hour later, Doi Kazuto got the news and hurried back.
"General," he looked at his uncle unwillingly, "Why don't we grab the sea-proof crossbow on the high point?"
As he spoke, Doi Kazuto glanced at the high ground not far away, gritting his teeth.
Although the public trebuchet and ballista positions are called highlands, they are actually just a few short earth slopes.
Doi Kazuto was also feeling a little elated after breaking through the two lines of defense.
It's just a small slope, not worth mentioning.
After he ordered Mashiro, Inukai and others to lead troops to attack, he stopped caring.
As a result, Mashiro and Inukai and several generals attacked for a day and a night. Not to mention capturing the anti-sea crossbow, they were unable to climb even halfway up the mountain.
After receiving the news, Doi Kazuto did not believe in evil, and immediately ignored the third line of defense, and aggressively brought people over to supervise the battle.
He wanted to see whether the Yunchui guards on the high ground had three eyes or six hands.
As a result, there were not many defenders on the high ground, and it could even be said that there were only a handful of them.
But in front of the soil and the people, the Japanese pirate soldiers died one after another. They attacked from morning to night, but they couldn't attack.
"Kazuto," Dohi Yuuto looked at his nephew silently, feeling regretful and helpless in his heart.
Originally, their attack to the west was overwhelming, but the third line of defense at Dinghai Pier was already crumbling.
As a result, the floating Doi Kazuto turned his attention to the high ground of Zhang Yang, and finally dragged Lu Ping'an back with the East China Sea Barrier for support.
So the battle situation became what it is now.
The third line of defense was stable, but the high ground could not be captured.
"It's different from the past when we just plundered and ran away. This time we got ashore and we weren't ready to leave again."
"As for the anti-sea crossbow, as the name suggests, it is only aimed at the defense of the sea. Therefore, it is meaningless no matter how powerful it is, just let it be."
"General," Dohi Yuto said anxiously, "There are not many defenders on the high ground. Our troops attacked for several days. Although we failed to capture it, we also eliminated many enemies."
"Let's not mention sea-breaking crossbows for the moment. Once those numerous trebuchets are activated, they pose a great threat to our army. I feel that they should be destroyed first no matter what."
As he spoke, Dohi Kazuto looked fiercely in the direction of the high ground.
There were not many enemies up there, but he tried his best and killed and injured countless of his men, but was unable to capture this small highland.
This was simply his biggest humiliation since joining the army.
If the enemy above is not completely wiped out, he may remember it in his heart for the rest of his life and never be able to raise his head again.
well.
Doi Yongto knew that his nephew had got into trouble.
But this kid is the most promising young man in their family and cannot be given up casually.
"Let's do this." Dohi Yongto reached out and patted his nephew on the shoulder.
"I will allow you to take people to fight again tonight. Regardless of whether you can win or not, you must return to the team tomorrow morning."
Doi Yongto was overjoyed, "Yes!"
He yelled, "Promise to get the job done."
Destroy the trebuchets and ballistas above and grab the sea-proof crossbow at the same time.
